Pirates of the Caribbean: At Worlds End - Anyone seen it?

[Narukami]

I have two words to describe this movie- LOOOOOONG and BUSY. There was SOOO much detail in so many visuals that it was bordering on noise... it was okay, but nothing spectacular. I'm finding more and more that visuals are becoming so incredible, that writing is falling woefully behind and so rarely holds up its end these days. POTCAWE is a perfect example...

True enough.

And this after both Spielberg & Lucas made a lot of noise at the Academy Awards (some years back now) about how "the story" was the most important aspect and they would put their efforts into that area once again as did Hollywood long ago.

We have all seen the fruits of their efforts.

As for POTCWE being long -- yes indeed, but now that we are entering the hot days of summer here in California, the longer the film the better, generally speaking. Two or three hours in the air conditioned splendor of a movie theatre with some warm pop corn and passable entertainment can serve to break-up a hot afternoon.
